We’re always getting new sensors in the lab and are excited to share them with you. The latest thing we’ve been experimenting with is the Structure sensor from Occipital. We’ve added it as the 11th (!) sensor on our in-depth comparison page, and we have some ideas for experiences we could create with it. One…
